Nice layout and the outdoor space was great! Kitchen was well appointed. Appreciated body wash, shampoo, and other amenities. Neighborhood was okay—is that property next door abandoned? But location was central to all that we wanted to see. Would stay again

Family Fun
My family enjoyed staying in this cozy house. The rooms were spacious and very clean. We enjoyed very much the pool and lanai. Every room had clean and fresch linens and towels. The kitchen had almost everything that would be needed to prepare lunches. I am very grateful to have found a family home away from our house.

Great place for UTampa visit
We were visiting for UTampa’s family weekend and wanted a place that we could make a home away from home for our freshman and this place was absolutely perfect!! Plenty of comfy hang out space, great kitchen to cook in and a quick 15 minute ride to campus. Heated pool with an outdoor TV was a huge plus. And the host is amazing - responsive communications and so accommodating. We’ll be back!

Feb 2024 visit
We enjoyed our stay. We took full advantage of the heated pool in Feb, the tv outside for music, the covered BBQ area to have a few drinks in the evening, and picnic table for our lunches. Very close to Busch Gardens. It is a little tricky getting on the main road from the subdivision due to being so busy and a signage obstructing view but you just need patience and has nothing to do with the home itself.

Shells of Paradise
Nice, cozy home. Everything was supplied to get started for our short stay. If we had had the maximum guests stay in the house we would have needed more wash cloths but were fine as there were only 3 of us staying.
Would stay here again, but suggest they sand/paint the picnic table as it’s peeling/splintering and wipe down counters in cabana grill area before guests arrive. You will enjoy this home.
